Drilling continued in the steel for the north inner sill. Lenny is doing the honors with the piece in situ, using the drill in the horizontal position, while Bob is providing the lubricant. The splice piece had already been drilled, but not the long pieces.
Both inner sills have now been fitted with the reinforcing steel. They will eventually be bolted together with pipe spacers between for added stabilization. The tie rods passing through the sills will be tensioned later as well.
Meanwhile, Craig is fitting the corner post for the west door that he has fabricated. The steps into the car were also reinstalled at this end so we don't have to walk to the other end, often ducking extended tie rods, to access the car.
